Thread: Seeking advice re barrel length for a .308 and 7mm-08

Well reading this has been quite interesting.

I own both but I'm back to front.

The 7mm08 I own was 18" and needed re crowning so I shortened it to 16". And I absolutely love it.

My 308 shoots mint as and it's a 20" and it's in the case of don't F%!k with what isn't broke as it shoots really well.

For you're circumstances shorten the 308 up or to 16". You'll be quite suprised how well they perform.

Then I'd either hand load you're 7mm08(projectiles will be a right Prick of a thing to find sadly) and see what it can do.

All of my rifles are 20" max barrel length now and the deer do not know the difference either.

Hope this helps
